| Description: | It is not apparent to the average user that the PASSTHRU function should not be passed as ${PASSTHRU(string)} but just as PASSTHRU(string) to functions which take a variable name and not its contents. | ||
| Comments: | By: Richard Miller (ulogic) 2013-04-27 16:23:40.745-0500 Patch adds the following to core show function PASSTHRU {noformat} NOTE: The functions which take a variable name need to be passed var and not ${var}. Similarly, use PASSTHRU() and not ${PASSTHRU()}. Example: ${CHANNEL} contains SIP/321-1 ${CUT(PASSTHRU(${CUT(CHANNEL,-,1)}),/,2)}) will return 321 {noformat} (I expected 321 not to be on a line by itself).
